Bid Support

We would like to hear about your research and knowledge exchange

ideas from the very early stages. Speak to Duncan Bullen as your ADoS

and contact the Research and Knowledge Exchange team, (RaKE) via

bidsupport@brighton.ac.uk for an initial chat about your project idea

and how we can help you take this forward.

Once you are at a stage where you want to actively develop your idea into

an application for external funding, RaKE will send you an Intention To

Develop (ITD) survey link which captures key initial info such as funder/

scheme*, project dates and what resources might be needed.

The ITD provides the School with enough information to consider/approve

the bid for further development and depending on project nature, RaKE will

allocate a Research Development Officer or Knowledge Exchange Manager

to support you on each step of the journey towards bid submission,

including proposal and budget development, funder portal navigation,

contracts & IP advice, peer review where required and collating final

approvals.
